• 6-month-old mice exhibit cartilage destruction which becomes severe at 18 months of age indicating spontaneous age-related osteoarthritis
• cartilage destruction is accompanied by aggravated synovial inflammation but comparable osteophyte maturity as in controls
• expression of senescence, DNA damage, and catabolic markers are decreased in cartilage of aged mice
• however, mice exhibit normal skeletal development, with normal organization of growth plates and normal body weight

• tamoxifen-treated mice undergoing destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) surgery-induced osteoarthritis show more severe osteoarthritis progression at both 6- and 10-weeks post DMM surgery, showing reduced cartilage areas, aggravated synovial inflammation, partially increased osteophyte maturity, increased OARSI scores and enhanced cellular senescence of chondrocytes
• the severity of DMM-induced osteoarthritis in tamoxifen-treated mice is comparable to that in controls after dynasore, a CME inhibitor, treatment or after RO4929097, a Notch pathway inhibitor, treatment, with reduced cartilage destruction and diminished numbers of senescent chondrocytes
